奇聞! 印度男子邊做腦部手術邊彈吉他!

An Indian musician played the guitar on the operating table to help doctors treat involuntary muscle spasms in his fingers.

爲了幫助醫生們治療自己手指上的自發性肌肉痙攣，一名印度音樂家竟然在手術檯上彈起了吉他。

The condition causes painful spasms, twisting and repetitive movements or abnormal postures.

這種病情會造成痙攣疼痛、彎曲變形和重複的動作、或者是不正常的姿勢。

Mr Prasad told the BBC that he was able to play with ease after the surgery.

這位名叫普拉薩德的病人向BBC透露，術後，他能夠輕輕鬆鬆地彈吉他了。

He added that spasms in his fingers occurred only when he played the guitar.

他還表示，手指痙攣只有在他彈吉他的時候發作。

But a neurologist correctly diagnosed nine months ago that he was suffering from dystonia.

但是九個月前，一名神經學家做出了正確的診斷：他患上了肌張力障礙。

"I was advised to undergo brain surgery, but I got scared. But my doctor, Sharan Srinivasan, gave me the confidence to do it," he said.

他說道：“醫生建議我接受大腦手術，我很害怕。但是，我的醫生沙蘭·斯里尼瓦桑給了我足夠的自信來做手術。”

Mr Prasad added that he felt "like a generator was on during the operation", but felt "no pain".

普拉薩德補充說道，他感覺好似“一臺在手術中運作的發電機”，但是並未感覺到疼痛。

Dr Srinivasan explained that "the patient does not feel pain because the operation was done under local anaesthesia".

斯里尼瓦桑醫生解釋稱，“病人沒有感覺到痛，是因爲手術是在局部麻醉的情況下進行的。”
